How to Save Money at North Valley Pet Hospital

Schedule Regular Vet Visits

One of the best ways to save on vet bills is to prevent expensive health issues before they develop. By scheduling regular wellness checkups, your vet can detect health issues early, helping you to avoid costly treatments and surgeries down the road.

Price Shop for Pet Prescriptions

Oftentimes our fur babies are prescribed human drugs off-label. Your vet is apt to charge more for these medications than you would pay at your local pharmacy. In fact, big-box or chain pharmacies can offer steep discounts. So it’s best to price shop.

Pet Insurance

Most pet insurance providers will pay between 80% and 90% of the vet bill. You can even get coverage for routine care and things like vaccinations and dental cleanings. If you do the math, you’ll most likely find that pet insurance makes financial sense in the long run as well as gives you peace of mind.

Getting to Know Your New Vet: Essential Questions to Ask

Choosing a new veterinarian is an important decision for any pet owner. You want to find someone who is competent, compassionate, and a good fit for you and your fur baby. To help you get the most out of your first appointment, here's a list of essential questions to ask your new vet:

Tell me about your experience with [pet type].

Different vets have different areas of specialization. Some are experts with cats, some dogs, some pocket pets, and some horses. Knowing that your vet has vast experience treating your specific type of pet can bring you peace of mind.

How do you handle emergencies?

You must know what to do in case of a pet medical emergency. Inquire what after-hours policy the clinic has, whether they have on-site emergency care available, and if they have a relationship with any nearby emergency animal hospitals.

How do you communicate with pet owners?

Good communication is key to building a trusting relationship with your vet. Ask how they prefer to communicate (phone calls, emails, online portal) and how often you can expect to hear from them.

Are there any breed-specific health concerns I should be aware of?

Some breeds are predisposed to certain health conditions. Knowing what to watch out for can help you catch problems early and get your pet the treatment they need.

Do you have any questions for me about my pet?

This is a great question to ask because the answer will show that the vet is interested in getting to know your pet as an individual and is willing to listen to your concerns.

Bonus question: Can I take a tour of your facility?

Getting a feel for the clinic's environment can help you and your pet feel more comfortable during your visits. Remember, you’re not just looking for a veterinarian, you’re looking for a partnership. Do not be afraid to ask these questions and any others you can think of. Any vet worth their salt will be happy to answer them. Because the more informed you are, the better equipped you'll be to make decisions about your pet's care! And that should be every vet’s top priority.

The front desk staff is extremely helpful and friendly. Brought my little dog in for gland expression. Quick and easy. Tech was caring and explained everything.

This last week, I had to take my little boy in to be sent to doggie heaven. He was the only pet I've ever had and I had him for over 15 years. Dr. Dean, the Nurses and Staff couldn't have been any better in the way they treated me and my dog. They were very compassionate and after a complete examination explained the process and allowed me to be with him until the end. This was the most heartwrenching thing I have ever had to do and Dr. Dean and his staff made it as comfortable for me as possible. I highly recommend this office for any pets needs. Thank You again Dr. Dean and staff for your professionalism and compassion.

The best and most caring vet in this area. We’ve been to a few and Dr. Dean, the vet techs, and the front staff are far superior. We had an emergency and they were so flexible to get our sweet Charlie in asap. While she was hospitalized, she received excellent care and they were so kind and compassionate when we came to visit her. They made sure we felt comfortable and informed us with phone calls on her progress throughout her stay. This clinic saved her life and we are forever grateful. Thank you is not enough and I would recommend them 100 times over!

I started using North Valley Pet Hospital for boarding my pets when I moved here a little over a year ago. At the time I did their vetting at another clinic. Each time I called NVPH for any reason I got a friendly, knowlegeable person and did not have to go back and forth with messages, email, and texts. If I called when the clinic was closed I still got a call back quickly after they were open again. Each time my pets came in, each person acted like they knew them and were happy to see them. My pets acted comfortable like they also knew the staff. No one rushed me or pushed products or services. I decided that I should try their vet services too since I felt they trully cared and and I could get an appointment in a timely manor. So I brought my older cat who has several medical issues in to see Dr. Dean and I felt he knew what he was doing. He was never condescending and always took my questions and concerns seriously. He worked with me on a medication issue. I was super impressed and next brought my dog for his yearly visit. My dog is an abuse survivor and has a few PTSD issues and although he has come a long way he still can be afraid of men. Dr Dean got on the floor with him and examed him in a slow quiet manner and was able to do the whole visit without my dog getting fearful. He answered all of my questions and listened to me. I would highly recommend this clinic! They are now my clinic for all 3 pets from boarding to medical issues. It's a pleasure to come in for appointments!

Used to be great place. Not any more. My dog have ear infection for over 3 weeks now, 3 visits and $350 later, his ear was dirty (they said not to clean it), stinky and itchy. He started loosing hair (its a poodle, they dont shed), they ignored basically when we ask why.We went to vet in Vegas, fir second opinion, its veen taking long time, and it doesn't looks any better. The Vegas told us this medication is know for low success rates with ear infections, so they use it only on aggressive dogs, as is once a week application. They clean the ear, give us normal 2x day ear drops, and 3 days later he is already looking better! Never again will go back to NV hospital, I would rather drive to Vegas, but can't let my dog to get deaf just because they want to collect payment for another visit.
